For short trips under 3 hours, it finds the best quality stops along your path. For longer drives, it builds a full rhythm - scheduling breaks at natural intervals based on drive time and time of day, so your 2 PM lunch stop has actual restaurants and your evening rest break has well-lit facilities.
Every recommended stop is scored with an AI quality grade from A to F, drawing from 6 data sources including OpenStreetMap, Apple Places, and brand reliability data. You see the grade before you commit to pulling off the highway.
In v2.7, Journey IQ gained on-route intelligence with open-hours confidence scoring and desert-aware stop spacing. Driving through rural stretches with limited options? The engine detects low-coverage corridors and adjusts stop timing so you never pass the last good option without knowing it.
